How it works
Whether you are a creator looking for work or a studio looking to hire, Vertgigs is built for the vertical production workflow.
For creators
Create your profile
Sign up free on the Seeker tier. Add your role, city, languages, and day rate. Upload your 9:16 reel (the reel slot is built for vertical, no workarounds). List your production credits with platform tags (DramaBox, ReelShort, etc.).
Set your availability
Mark yourself as Available, Limited, or Booked. Studios filter by availability window (next 14, 30, or 60 days) so being current matters. Update it after every booking.
Apply to gigs
Browse open gigs filtered by role, city, language, and rate. Apply with your reel and a short cover note. Seeker tier gets 3 applications per month. Pro removes that limit.
Connect and get hired
Studios message you directly to discuss the project. Agree on terms off-platform. Vertgigs is the connection layer, not a payment processor or employer. Get to work.
For studios
Post a gig or casting call
Choose a gig post ($15 one-time or included in Studio plan) or a casting call ($35 one-time or included). Fill in role, rate, shoot dates, location, language, and format spec. Your post goes live immediately.
Search and shortlist talent
Browse the talent grid filtered by role, city, language, day rate, and availability window. Save promising profiles to named shortlists by project. Studio tier includes direct messaging without a connection request.
Review applicants
Gig applicants arrive in your inbox with their reel and cover note attached. Filter by status. Message finalists directly. All applicant management is in your Studio dashboard.
Hire and shoot
Agree on terms directly with the talent off-platform. Vertgigs does not process payments or act as employer. Your production deal is your own. Close the loop by marking the gig filled so the community stays current.
